being respectful of the people who run this place doesn't make me a conformist

ChatGPT has been reading @That Dude comments

Your tragic flaw

When I started this thread, I never thought we’d be close to 400 pages with nothing to show for it!!!

Yeahhh everybody just shut up and think for a sec about how we might have new music from our boys soon!! I'm actually starting to get excited, and honestly I've not really been excited about GD related stuff since like the Longshot era so hopefully that's a good sign and hopefully I'm not disappointed aha 😅

Why is this still going on? Brittney shouldn't even have been posted about in the first place. This is a Green Day forum for talking about the band and the members of the band, not for talking about their family members. Because one of their family members happens to post stupid and ignorant shit doesn't make her magically eligible for discussion here. It's simply off topic and goes against our long standing rule of not discussing the band member's personal lives and family members. Transphobia shouldn't be tolerated and I'm glad since it was brought up it (and the transphobic comments from some people here) was called out. But it's been said now and it still isn't anything to do with the topic of this thread. Back on topic please.

^^ clearly the guitar he's going to use to play Peacemaker and Misery on the next tour

I DON'T KNOW AND UTS DRIVING ME NUTS

I'm just gonna put my nimrod in the blender for the hell of it. Probably more fun than scrolling through this forum. We are like a tire in the mud

Well...again...this isn't fucking happening, so your entire premise is complete and utter bullshit. Thanks though.

This one?

I just listened to the second to last tease we got and it sounds so good god

And now we’re heading into May!!! Hope we hear something soon!!!

Not if you live in Scotland it doesn't! 😂 😭

I think that’s just the tape right?

Boy’s got too many guitars. He sold a whole bunch of them and I still wonder if he even knows how many he’s got. Long way from 1992 where if he broke a string on Blue onstage everyone had to wait until he restrung it.

What if we are getting a semi acoustic album 👀 just like Warning

Who knows. I think it was 2 months change between mastering and announcement on both revrad and FOAM. I mean IF they were finishing things up at the end February when they were at CLAs studio then we’re at that 2 month mark now.

And we've already seen CLA in the teasers, so this proves that everything is done and they're just sitting on it! What else could they possibly be waiting for?

Green Day doesn’t need to announce the returning of a founding and important member in order to stay relevant and generate cash. That’s all blink was doing when they recorded and released Edging, announced an album and tour. All hype and future promises, just like Tom is famous for. (I like blink and love Tom, but I don’t let that cloud my judgement)

Ngl all these chat gpt green day albums have been CORNY. But i do like a few of these album names. Midnight in America, New Age Chaos, and Punk Rock Promise are cool names

They announced a tour back in October, which is now happening, and still haven’t even released a new album. I 100% expected them to release something before Green Day did.

Well beyond the wonderful potential track lists from @That Dude it sounds like a new single will drop soon along with a new album in Septemberish based on maybe legit info from Boooooze and Matt.

Nothing much on Instagram today but Kevin did post a cute picture of his cat

When did being conformist become cool? Very anti Green Day to do what you’re told. Anyway, does make sense to release it when there is less noise. I honestly have no idea how album sales trends work anymore now that streaming is king.

This was on Tumblr and is really good https://www.tumblr.com/thisisjoy/715894214975799296/queen-lightning-art-green-days-billie-joe

I’m pretty sure mods already asked to stop that discussion.

Scotland is a beautiful country. The greenery of the countryside and the mountain views are breathtaking.

Lots of vague statements from The Insiders. Western culture includes Europe btw.

Summer does end in late September, so plenty of time 🙂

This discussion is off topic and needs to end now. As Clockwise put it there is no debate, trans rights are human rights. Just like the people who thought it was "common sense" not to let black and white people have the same rights in the 60s, then later the people who thought it was "common sense" not to give gay people the same rights, it is bigots on the wrong side of history now crying "common sense" to justify their transphobia. There are too many transphobic comments in this thread already and I don't want to see any more in this thread or on this site. Anyone making any more transphobic comments will be suspended. And I ask that everyone stop posting about this topic now regardless of your position. Posts about the upcoming album only from here please.

There is no debate. Trans Rights are Human Rights. And if you don't agree with that, I have nothing to say to you.

Someone posted this comment on greendayinc Instagram in reference to the new album … It's done. But now new label needed to flesh out the deal and also changed management. Then getting the rights of reprise for royalties on tours off Warner bros, court filings, artwork designs, manufacturing ready to go etc. most records only take 6 months but they don't have all this to deal with. Image rights signed back too. Then new label has to pay a small bit to lookout and back to reprise at gigs etc. I'm confident of a summer single autumn album

If friends of 40 years can’t overcome a difference in opinion, that would be sad.

Those are using cheap models probably purchased for the tour, not from his personal collection.

And he invites fans on stage and lets them keep the guitars!!!! He must have a HUGE collection of them!!!

Clearly the guitar he's going to use to close every show with Good Riddance.

Why don't we just get AI to create the album from the clips we have so far? Green Day have clearly been abducted by The Network and these teasers are probably just Panicland again. The masters are stolen. The child is gone, the dream is gone and I Have become Comfortabley numb.

Yeah

I've been out all day, at work, and then hung out with some friends tonight. What did I miss? What did @Little Boy Named Booze and @Sanity Loan say today?

Please stop. I'm sure there are other threads or DM each other about such topics. We are here in this specific thread to talk about new music from our guys.....and when summer really ends 😅

What if Green Day did a 1972 project with an album of new originals and a 2nd disc of 1972 covers. What songs would they pick from these? Just browsed around and found these... Join Together - The Who Ziggy Stardust-David Bowie (they teased this live) or Moonage Daydream, Suffragette City Let's Stay Together - Al Green Heart of Gold - Neil Young Victoria - The Kinks Wild Child - Lou Reed Supernaut - Black Sabbath Rocks Off - The Rolling Stones Rocket Man - Elton John Lean On Me - Bill Withers Witchy Woman - The Eagles School's Out - Alice Cooper All the Young Dudes - Mott the Hoople Superstition - Stevie Wonder I'm Just a Singer In a Rock n' Roll Band - The Moody Blues Reelin' in the Years - Steely Dan Metal Guru - T. Rex

Are we starting another debate over when Summer ends? 🤪

Remember back in 2019 when Green Day said the good thing about being free from their last contract is they could now release music more frequently and in any form they want? Like they could literally learn a new song and release it that night and how exciting that sounded to them? And now here we are waiting a year and a half for this record to come out. How’s that new contract going for you?

History has always been unkind to minorities, trans people have always existed whether people want to acknowledge it or not, there was a sex institution built in Germany in the early 1900s to research this kind of thing and then it was destroyed by the Nazis in an attempt to erase us, and currently some members of the US government are also trying to erase us by legislating us out of existence. Nazis are still protesting trans people and drag queens, so people posting anti trans shit online are seriously taking the same stance as the Nazis do, which definitely makes someone a shitty person https://www.hrc.org/resources/seven-things-about-transgender-people-that-you-didnt-know Ok, you may be a different person now, that's to be expected, it's part of growing up, but in your personal growth have you questioned your gender at all or have you always been sure of it? Being unsure is ok, people should feel free to explore who they are, but they shouldn't have to wait a certain age to explore that, especially after the irreversible changes that come from "growing up naturally". No one is forcing an agenda on kids, what's happening is kids are brave enough to talk to their parents about their gender and then typically after seeing a therapist the parents will make decisions with their children and medical professionals as to what's best for them at that age. No one is going around "mutilating children" as certain politicians like to say, those kinds of surgeries aren't permitted until you're over 18, and even then they usually require a lot of prerequisites to make sure it's what the person truly wants/needs. Teens can be given puberty blockers to pause puberty until they're old enough to make the decision and be sure of it. States are currently trying to take away rights for even trans adults to receive hormone replacement therapy, and states like Texas and Florida are trying to steal your child from you if you let them come out as transgender, and Florida wants to take your child if you as an adult with your own legal free will are transgender. The shit these states are doing definitely seem like fascism to me, but I didn't call Brittney a fascist, and I think the stuff she's posting is ignorant, not common sense. Of course people are free to disagree with each other, but when the government is trying to take rights away from a certain group of people then a line has been crossed and things have gone too far. I know this is very off topic but I felt a need to reply, this is the last I'll be posting about it in this thread

This isn't the thread for this, but your statement is completely off-base and inaccurate. Children are not just being "subjected" to this stuff. That's a myth fabricated by one segment of the population. It only is a thing if said child is experiencing feelings that they need help dealing with. And in many cases, schools are where children actually trust the adults they are around. Parents who are overly concerned about this are REALLY shitty parents who don't have the trust of their children.

Mike is very good friends with laura jane grace and he is a big LGBT+ supporter so I wouldn't take his wife's view as his own, she is entitled to believe whatever she wants to believe (even though i strongly disagree with what she is saying/suggesting because i'm trans myself) let's get back to talking about music instead of culture war stuff 🥰

Oof, I just looked at her profile and if you click the "uproar xx xy" thing on her profile there's a ton of transphobic posts, so fucking lame. And it's not a "difference of opinion" thing, she's being a bully and posting shit about trans people being mentally ill. She definitely seems like a shitty person

Just stumble upon a comment from Mike's wife about trans issues on instagram.... is she dumb? I wonder if this affect their friendship or the album project. I hope Mike don't take her wife side on this subject. Because Green Day wouldn't agree with this shit. Seriously Britt, shut the fuck up.
